Publisher's Summary

Amanda King and Tess Cuffe are strangers who share the same Georgian house, but their lives couldn't be more different. Amanda seems to have it all, absolute perfection. She projects all the accoutrements of a lady who lunches. Sadly, the reality is a soulless home, an unfaithful husband and a very lonely heart. By comparison, in the basement flat, unwanted tenant Tess has spent a lifetime hiding and shutting her heart to love. It takes a bossy doctor, a handsome gardener, a pushy teenager and an abandoned cat to show these two women that sometimes letting go is the first step to moving forward and new friendships can come from the most unlikely situations.

Great book

I was hooked on this book from the very start. Tess and Amanda's stories remind you that you don't necessarily get what you want at the start, but also what goes around comes around. I enjoyed the added depth created by the throwbacks and absolutely love the ending.
Aoife McMahon delivers a brilliant performance once again.

A really lovely story

I genuinely enjoyed this book, which i stumbled across searching for more books narrated by Aoife McMahon - so suffice to say i give 5 stars for the narration as well.

disappointing read

Predictable, with a lack of strong female characters. I rolled my eyes so many times.

An enjoyable read

This genre is not something that I would normally read, I prefer suspense or thriller style books, but given the overall high ratings I thought that I would give it a go. I was not disappointed.
It took me a bit to get into the book, but I put that down to me not being use to the type of book. Once I really got into it I couldn't stop listening. Loved it!
